Comparison of hazard ratios for all-cause mortality between diabetes and non-diabetes patients on peritoneal dialysis using standard Cox proportional hazards regression. Model 1 is adjusted for age, sex, duration of PD, and presence or absence of comorbid cardiovascular disease. Model 2 is adjusted for basic demographic and dialysis-related factors, including total Kt/V, anuric or non-anuric state, type of dialysate, and PD + HD combination therapy. Model 3 is adjusted for demographic, dialysis-related, nutrition-related, and inflammation-related factors, including body mass index and C-reactive protein, hemoglobin, serum albumin, non-HDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, calcium, and phosphate levels. CI, confidence interval; HD, hemodialysis; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; HR, hazard ratio; PD, peritoneal dialysis.
